Default HotCam or Comp Cam?

Hey I need help on deciding what is a good cam for my 98 ls1 6spd. HotCam or Comp Cam? I am trying to get 400horses. I think I am anywhere from 317-325. I haven't dynoed so I my starting point for stock horses is 305. Look at my sig for the mods (not much). If you guys think ls1s give more horses and was underatted purposely by Chevy then lets say I want about 430. I use my car as an everyday car, so I guess I want something between mild and wild. Please I need the dudes who know what they are talking about on this one cuz it's not something I can easily go back and change. I've been on this site for about 2 months now and everyone here seems to give good advice and I am starting to remember names and know who is an expert in a particular area. I would get headers, but I didn't want all that extra noise by my feet. I love to hear my music.
